Scored this blanket lined Big Smith on Ebay for $25 +shipping.
The picture makes it seem a little dirty, but I think that's just the lighting.
I set a max bid of $35 the other day and forgot about it, with 6 others watching I didn't expect to get it but nobody else bid and I won it for the...
Just a Henley a new flannel and the PW suede vest for me today while I'm out plinking with one of my vintage air pistols, it warmed up to 67°f by 10:30am this morning so the jacket got old pretty quick.
My grandfather died when I was 7 and the only memory I have of him wearing a jacket at all was some kind of basic mechanics jacket.
He was a tank driver during the war, owned a flying A gas station after the war, then was hired on as vehicle maintenance/ service technician for our county CHP...
They are definitely 70's but being a western style, they don't really come off as overly 70's either.
I can wear this and nobody is going to say " hey super fly " .
Thanks.
If Marc mndt hadn't posted his in response to my PW suede vest I wouldn't have it, so I have to give z big thanks to him and this forum.
I instantly fell in love with the jacket and began looking for one, I found one on Ebay right away and after a little convincing I threw in an offer...

I currently have my eye on...
I still like seeing yours even though I have my own that I'm currently wearing.
I felt like the condition of mine is decent, but definitely not in the same condition as yours.
It has a few scars that I wish weren't there, but I can definitely live with them.
Early-mid 70's pioneer wear suede which I'm wearing again today because it quickly became one of my favorite jackets that I wear every opportunity I get.
As long as the weather cooperates and I'm not at work.
The original suede care pamphlet that I found in the pocket when I received it is...
I have been very happy with the first 2 LW buck camp flannels I ordered and decided to order two more.
I thought their buck camp flannels were normally more expensive than I payed but apparently that wasn't a sale price, this time they do have a 25% discount code so the already reasonable price...
That's a decent idea of your using a single prong pin, otherwise you'll need two and not every pin would line up.
Btw I use these " locking " pin keepers, they're basically just a metal plug with a pin hole and a set screw in the side.
I order them from a seller on Ebay called Cactus mountain...
